This is his 4th year at LMS. What he likes best about LMS is his department and how they interact with one another. He also likes the overall environment with colleagues and administration, there is a mutual respect among all of us.
Student of the Week
Safari Johnson
She was selected because she always has a good attitude, is very self-aware, and is genuinely kind to the people around her, including her teachers. She strives to do the right thing and owns up to her mistakes and tries to correct them if she can.
Safari likes Math class the best. It's her favorite subject and she's doing well, she also likes the Math activities.
Her favorite part of the year so far was the Color Jog.
